[QUOTE="Catt57, post: 3478384, member: 34578"] For the future internet searches that lead to this post. Here is what i used. WEAVER Side Mount Base - #2 [URL]https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1[/URL] Weaver Side Mount Base - 1-Inch High Bracket and Rings [URL]https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1[/URL] The only catch is that I had to slightly modify the base itself since Savage used a 10/32 thread instead of the 8/40 screws included with the base. First i had to get a couple of 10/32 screws and cut them to length. The diameter of the heads on the screws had to be turned down to fit the base, and the height of the head of the screw had to be shortened. Shortening the head of the screw left no purchase remaining for a screw driver, so I used a hacksaw to cut the slot deeper. The holes in the #2 base also had to be widened just enough to accommodate the 10-32 thread. [/QUOTE]
